Hafnarfjörður is the westernmost municipality of Capital area, so called Larger Reykjavík, in ICELAND. It is the closest to Mount Keilir and Fagradalsfjall. Hence, the earthquakes are felt here the most. Unlike Reykjavík proper, Hafnarfjörður was built on real post glacial lavafields! Its parks are full of lava rocks and volcanic pressure ridges as at 07:30. Some psychics claim those lava rocks are home to elves.
Hafnarfjörður is home to Viking Village and yearly Viking festivals that place there. Hence sometimes its called the city of the Vikings.
Hafnarfjörður is also second biggest port of Iceland, after Reykjavík proper. Historically, the city developed around the harbour and fishing independently from Reykjavik (though now it basically merged with Reykjavík from the south west). It has got its own distinct old downtown.
Krýsuvík (Fagradalsfjall and Keilir are part of the Krýsuvík Volcanic System) belong to Hafnarfjörður municipality. At 01:07 and 05:20 you can see Keilir Cone and Fagradalsfjall in the background where we are currently having hundreds of earthquakes.
